- Reposted by Chris Jones🚨Jeff Bezos' wedding last summer cost about $50M. That, alone, could have saved all 300 positions cut today at The Washington Post for a year. Actually, he could have ensured there were no staff cuts for the next decade and he'd still have net worth of 249B. Thank you Lizzie Johnson.

- Reposted by Chris JonesThe main argument against removing Morgan McSweeney as chief of staff now—at least according to some within Labour I’ve spoken with—is that it means he wouldn’t be around in May, to a sacrificed then over the local election results. It’s not a *great* position for either the PM or McSweeney, is it?

The chatbot still produces sexualized images — even when told the subjects don’t consent. even when told the photos will be used for public humiliation. even when told the subjects are survivors of abuse. www.reuters.com/business/des...

- Reposted by Chris JonesWhy is Peter Mandelson still allowed to sit in the House of Lords? He needs to be placed under police investigation due to his close links with Epstein.
- Reposted by Chris JonesMost of Epstein’s victims were either too frightened to come forward, or silenced through legal threats. Oh, and here’s a senior British politician giving Epstein tips on how to silence them
- What an absolute POS
- Extraordinary: Mandelson told Epstein that JP Morgan should "threaten" then cabinet colleague and chancellor Alistair Darling over tax on bankers' bonuses. In plain language: "Minister conspired with US bank against own government". More brilliant FT reporting www.ft.com/content/91e8...
